The World Health Organisation's (WHO's) special envoy for Covid has died aged 75.
Sir David Nabarro famously suggested that humanity would have to learn to 'co-exist' with the virus, in a staggering interview with Sky News in June 2021.
He was appointed to the role in 2020 amid the outbreak of the pandemic and regularly appeared on television news throughout the crisis.
The London-born official worked for the United Nations (UN) between 2000 and 2017 where he also tackled outbreaks of malaria, bird flu and Ebola.
Sir David expanded nutrition programmes to underdeveloped countries during his stint at the UN.
